Screen display

[Mani]

How do I modify my screen display? I have to keep either scrolling up or
down and across just to see all the information. Is there a way I can make
all the contents and items display on the form without having to do that??
Please help.. and thanks in advance!

Right-click on the desktop, and choose Properties > Settings
(windowsXP). Shov the slider to the right to get the maximum
resolution for your video card + monitor combination.

THere is no built-in way to have an Access form resize its content to
fit the screen.

There are third-party form resizing solutions available that might
help:

A shareware version of a form rescaling module I wrote called
ShrinkerStretcher is available at this web site: http://www.peterssoftware.com/ss.htm

There's a form resizer at http://www.jamiessoftware.tk/resizeform/rf_jump.html
..

Another one: http://sourceforge.net/projects/modscaleform

The Access Developer's Handbook has form resizing code included:

Hope this helps,
